More mentally present, better focus, less social awkwardness, not as "in my head", make better use of my time, obviously vastly improved cardio performance. It was kinda painful getting off it because I used it to mask a lot of the unhappiness I felt in my life, but being sober has made me face reality and start actually changing what I don't like rather than slogging through it just waiting to smoke it all away.
The part that fricked me up is how it slowly affected my brain chemistry. It starts off all fun and over time, you sit there thinking wait am I ever really happy when I’m not high? Once I quit, I went back to being happy again and it made me realize how unhappy I was. Weed is a strange drug though, it affects everyone in different ways so I have some friends that live normal happy lives using it every day.
>obviously vastly improved cardio performance >obviously
I’m not shitting on your progress because it’s a good thing but how do you have improved cardio? How much were you smoking? I get high daily and get killer workouts stoned. My resting heart rate is 45-50. It’s so low I’ve been diagnosed with an arrhythmia but I’ve been thoroughly checked out and they say it’s because I exercise so much.
I vape flower so that may be part of it but even when I was smoking it my cardio never suffered.
>smoke weed everyday >large huge joints at home and quick vape hits at work >drink alcohol from the moment I wake to the moment I fall asleep >quick shots of whisky at work and a nice spritz at home >consume coffee all day and sniff coke all night >sleep a maximum of 5 hours a night >work a minimum of 80 hours a week >no joke make a lot of money >manage to workout and keep fit >have a wife and kids >have multiple side b***hes
Noted, I will probably only stop if I go broke or my nose melts though.
>I live my life in sin >BE JEALOUS
Good bait otherwise.
Sin according to who?
TL;DR: >just work a trade, bro.
I’m a surgeon, I guess it’s a trade somehow.
There’s zero chance your kids grow up without issues.
They can go jump off a building if my having fun fricks them up, I grew up in a third world shithole, they go to schools that cost 50k a semester, they owe me not the other way around.
That's why is being legalized. Back in the 60's they thought that weed made people too much of a free thinker and that is dangerous to them. They either realized that weed actually dumbs people down and pacifies them, or genetically modified it so that it does. There is defiantly something unnatural in vape carts. There is no way that a $20 thing that lasts almost 2 months can be good for you.
>Stop smoking weed daily 1 month ago >Stop drinking a couple shots of Vodka after work
My life is the same, just without the fun of getting high and slightly drunk 🙁
>be me >spend teenage years smoking mountains of grass, enjoying life >end up smoking every day, /fit but no career >eventually develop CHS, difficulty eating >Quit weed 2 years ago >No weed in system so Get CDL, begin stacking big boy paper >Job is super stressful, quit and try smoking weed again for first time in 2 years >Become very sick and lose 20 lbs
Good, now hit the iron
Good for you OP. Glad you're making improvements in your life.
Anon what’s better tell us about your recovery

So, placebo
You can tell this because of the cardio performance claim.
lol unironically go run your car in your closed garage
>less social awkwardness
This is the biggest thing with quitting weed. You start having conversations with people and being engaging instead of getting lost in your own head.

Being sober is lame. What kind of pussy can't handle a little weed now and then?
I like weed, but it isn't good for everyone. Some people can't function if they use it.

You have no idea what it means to truly live.
>sniff coke all night
I'm okay with the rest of it but please for your sake anon stop with the coke
It's bad for you

yeah coke is frickin awful, I'm lucky it didn't kill me
There’s zero chance your kids grow up without issues.
You're cringe
You’re based
>You have no idea what it means to truly live.
Sounds like your dead inside tbh.
Mirin' lifestyle, bro

>I can't remember the last time I smoked weed
I don't like it honestly...no more....

>one cart every 2 months
hahaha yeah totally what kind of reject smokes THAT much lol not me that's for sure
I quit smoking hashish 4 days ago, I'm really gonna miss the "masking" my sadness part
Nice dude. Lifting is better than weed.
I stopped smoking because it gave me massive anxiety and paranoia. Now I just need to quit drinking.

does the sense of false superiority fill that void for you? It does for some.
